Information icon Hello, I'm David Biddulph. I wanted to let you know that one or more of your recent contributions to Indian South Africans have been undone because they appeared to be promotional. Advertising and using Wikipedia as a "soapbox" are against Wikipedia policy and not permitted; Wikipedia articles should be written objectively, using independent sources, and from a neutral perspective. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about Wikipedia. Thank you. --David Biddulph (talk) 08:38, 12 November 2018 (UTC)Reply

Warning icon Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to add soapboxing, promotional or advertising material to Wikipedia, as you did at Indian South Africans, you may be blocked from editing. - Please also read about autobiography and conflict of interest. --David Biddulph (talk) 10:01, 12 November 2018 (UTC)Reply

Stop icon You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you use Wikipedia for soapboxing, promotion or advertising, as you did at Indian South Africans. --David Biddulph (talk) 11:12, 12 November 2018 (UTC)Reply

Your submission at Articles for creation: Veshane Decapote Singh (November 12)

edit
Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed! Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reason left by CASSIOPEIA was:
This submission's references do not show that the subject qualifies for a Wikipedia article—that is, they do not show significant coverage (not just passing mentions) about the subject in published, reliable, secondary sources that are independent of the subject (see the guidelines on the notability of people). Before any resubmission, additional references meeting these criteria should be added (see technical help). If no additional references exist, the subject is not suitable for Wikipedia.
 The comment the reviewer left was:
Please do NOT write about yourself - see WP:COI
Please check the submission for any additional comments left by the reviewer. You are encouraged to edit the submission to address the issues raised and resubmit when they have been resolved.
